Too true I hope he can inspire a less selfish outlook on life that many people seem to have these days. Sir Tom’s family should be incredibly proud of him, I am simply as an Englishman. He was a proper Hero and Gentleman. R.I.P. Sir Tom.
Tony.
Tony.
Inspirational, as others have said, a hero to the end.
A very sad day indeed. When you see what he achieved since last April, never mind his military service etc, he really was a true inspiration to the nation.
The head of the NHS charity said that with Gift Aid the total raised was a staggering amount just short of £40 million.
Condolences to all his family & friends.

I see he was on Blankety Blank with Sir Terrance of Wogan, and won the all important Blankety Blank cheque book and pen.
Have to say I feel very inadequate comparing my life to his, what a hero, and when last year he said “But things will get better and next year we’ll be all right.” ...it tugged at the heart strings and reminded me of my Grandad.
God bless ya fella.
